The Daffodil

18-20 Suffolk Parade, Montpellier, CHELTENHAM, GL50 2AE

A 1922 cinema has been transformed into this large open-plan eatery. The art-deco details have been retained, including the sweeping staircase leading up to the mezzanine-level bar, film-related memorabilia abound, and the open-to-view kitchen is where the screen used to be. This is a striking background for a long and varied brasserie-style menu that takes in everything from eggs Benedict to steak au poivre, or crab and apple salad to braised pork belly and cheek with winter vegetable purée and red wine jus. The charcoal grill is put to good use, resulting in, say, fillet of monkfish with chick pea and chorizo cassoulet, or Angus rib-eye with béarnaise, and to finish there may be sticky toffee pudding or Tangier lime and lemongrass pannacotta.

Great venue. The service was second to none and the food was excellent. Certainly be going back again and again.

All we can say is that the Daffodil experience was wonderful. Food, wine service and staff was excellent. Having come from Mallorca where we are spoilt for choice this was refreshing. We will have no problem recommending this restaurant to our friends. Thanks Amy.
